Wagner Leitmotifs | 100 Brunnhilde as Woman : Der Ring Des Nibelungen @wagnerleitmotifs7654 | Uploaded September 2013 | Updated October 2024, 55 minutes ago.
This leitmotif is first heard in the prologue of Gotterdammerung.
This motif represents Brunnhilde as a mortal woman, Siegfried's wife. This motif is derived from Sieglinde's soaring motif as she discovers that although her brother and lover Siegmund is dead and she's on the run from the king of the gods, she is pregnant with a son, the hero Siegfried.
later in Gotterdammerung, this motif will transform back into that Redemption Trough Love motif in Brunnhilde's Immolation scene when she removes the curse on the ring and redeems the world.
